TSUM disassembles down to its frame.
In Novosibirsk, the central department store building, built in 1967, was dismantled down to its supporting frame, leaving only columns and flights of stairs. Decommissioning is planned to be completed by 2028. A residential complex with 395 apartments and 640 non-residential complexes will be built in its place.
The project includes a kindergarten, commercial areas, a hotel, a three-level underground parking lot and a car wash. Residents can watch construction progress through a transparent construction fence.
